Copy edited (but more work is needed, e.g. near "might also be useful for the same cases" and "that does not destruct the person"). (its = possessive, it's = "it is" or "it has". See for example <http://www.wikihow.com/Use-Its-and-It's>.)

| Aug 3, 2013 at 21:13 | comment | added | Bart | Leave a comment along the lines of "Excellent answer, but unfortunately time caught up with you. Now X is the proper practice. Perhaps update your answer to say so". | |
| Aug 3, 2013 at 21:12 | comment | added | user210003 | @Bart: but how to tell user that this answer was outdated, people whose searching for an answer means that they are not familiar with that topic, then, they will probably chose the one that has max vote. | |
